I have a thing for visiting old prisons, I guess. In Dublin on Sunday, we visited Kilmainham Prison which is the fifth prison I have visited. I’ve also been to Robben Island in South Africa, Eastern State in Philadelphia, Mansfield Prison where Shawsank Redemption was filmed in Ohio, and (briefly) Joliet outside of Chicago. This one, however, reminded me a great deal of our visit to Robben Island, but without the hopeful ending (Mandela and others eventually being released).
Thank you for this.
